Setup and Installation

Compatibility

This car stereo is designed for Honda Odyssey models from 2005 to 2010. It is compatible with vehicles that have an original car radio with a DVD player. It is not compatible with original car radios that have a factory screen or GPS. In such cases, an additional wire harness may be required.

Wiring Diagram for Backup Camera

Proper connection of the backup camera is crucial for its automatic activation. Follow these steps:

1. Power Cable Connection: Connect the red wire of the backup camera's power cable to the positive reversing light, and the black wire to the negative reversing light.
2. RCA Cable Connection: Insert the yellow RCA cable from the camera into the 'CAM-IN' (yellow) port on the back of the radio unit.
3. Reverse Trigger Wire: Ensure the 'reverse (+)' wire connection (typically a pink wire on the power wire harness labeled 'back') is securely connected to the positive wire of the reversing light. This enables the unit to automatically display the rear view image when the vehicle is in reverse.

Note 1: The short red wires next to the RCA port do not require connection in this wiring setup.
Note 2: When the device is in parking mode (displaying the rear view), other functions will temporarily pause.
